GOP Goes After Landrieu on Oil
It seems that the GOP has finally gotten it - oil as a form of energy is a big issue with Americans.
Of course, this is in contrast to the Democrats, who just don't get it.
Last week, the Tennessee Republican Party started pushing bumper stickers that reflect what many Americans want - increased domestic drilling. According to what I've heard, hundreds of those stickers were bought within hours of their release thanks to simply references to them on blogs.
Today comes news that Louisiana State Treasurer John Kennedy, the GOP nominee for the U.S. Senate, is taking on incumbent U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu on the issue of oil, leases, and drilling.
This is going to be a common theme, folks. Who would have guessed that the Republicans - post-Bush - would emerge as the party working for energy solutions to help out the American people?
